Fantasia

Easier Piano Pieces 56-Telemann composed three dozen Fantasias which were published in 1732. He deliberately set out to juxtapose the French and Italian styles with the first and third (published here) dozen having Italian titles and tempo markings and the second dozen French. the editorial aim of these albums has been to present a text that allows as stylish a rendering as possible bearing in mind that the majority of players will be pianists rather than harpsichordists. Marks of dynamics and of articulation have been added and so have harmony notes of inner parts which would have been improvised by the player in an 18th-century performance.

Par REGER MAX. The seven chorale fantasias by Max Reger are among the most important of organ repertoire ? masterpieces blending chorale melody and programmatic music based on the text of the chorales. Published on the occasion of the composer's 150th birthday, this fundamentally revised Urtext edition, in two volumes, is edited by the internationally renowned organist and Leipzig professor of organ Martin Schmeding. As one of the most influential Reger interpreters, Schmeding not only includes the latest research, but also addresses the need for a contemporary interpretation of the chorale fantasias on modern organs. The edition includes all the original dynamic and agogic indications (including continuation lines to cresc., etc., which are missing in many modern editions), as well as all the original registration and manual indications. Martin Schmeding's new edition provides for the first time an original musical text that combines the requirements of a modern Urtext edition with the demands of a practical edition. / Date parution : 2023-08-12/ Recueil / Orgue

The Bohuslav Martinu Complete Edition III/1/5. Par MARTINU BOHUSLAV. “Incarnation” (1956), Bohuslav Martinu’s fourth piano concerto, follows an atypical two-movement structure. It was composed for Martinu’s friend Rudolf Firkušný, who played from a copy of the autograph until 1970, when the composition was first put into print. The next work, “Concerto in B flat major for Piano and Orchestra”, known under the name “Fantasia Concertante”, was to be Martinu’s very last concert work. The concerto in three movements, composed at the request of Swiss pianist Margrit Weber, is quite different from the previous work in terms of its compositional means. In this case, Martinu strongly influenced the edition of the work. The present volume of the Complete Edition of works by Bohuslav Martinu is based mainly on contemporary copies containing the composer’s own modifications. The edition presents numerous new findings about the genesis of both works./ Recueil / Orchestre

Bach, Johann Sebastian Organ Works, Volume 6 Preludes, Toccatas, Fantasias and Fugues II / Early Versions and Variants to I (Volume 5) and II (Volume 6) Editor Kilian, Dietrich / Wollny, Peter Johann Sebastian Bach: Complete Organ Works in revised editions Any complete scholarly critical edition of the works of Johann Sebastian Bach must incorporate new research findings in the interest of scholars and performers alike. Now all of Bärenreiter's new performing editions of Bach's organ works are being revised to reflect the current state of scholarship and to convey maximum fidelity to the sources by being linked to 'Bach digital'. The present volume is an updated edition of Series IV, Volume 6 of the 'New Bach Edition' (NBA), prepared by Dietrich Kilian in 1964. The discovery of new sources and a reassessment of existing handwritten copies have brought about changes to the contents of the volume, which now includes the 'Fantasia in C minor' (BWV 1121), the 'Fantasia in G major' (BWV 571), the 'Fugue in G major' (BWV 577) and the C major version of the 'Toccata and Fugue in E major' (BWV 566). On the other hand, the 'Prelude in G major' (BWV 568) as well as the alternative versions of the 'Fugue in C minor' (BWV 574a) and the 'Prelude in A major' (BWV 536a) have been discarded as presumably spurious. Besides the new compilation and corrections of the musical text, the volume also contains a detailed Foreword by Peter Wollny with observations on each work and the extant sources. Page turns have been re-examined and improved. In collaboration with the Bach Archive Leipzig and its 'Bach' digital database, links are provided to all the major sources. The website http://links.baerenreiter.com enables readers to access the relevant page in the source simply and conveniently via short URLs. The links stored there are examined for their validity on a regular basis.

Fantasia is a work for solo Violin composed by Peter Dickinson in 1959. The first performance was during the same year by Greek violinist Dinos Constantinides for whom the piece was written. According to the composer Fantasia is saturated with major sevenths and minor ninths with 'the widest range of compass tempo and texture'.

The nineteenth century saw an enthusuasm for Italian opera which live performance could never satisfy. In the absence of gramophone and radio the instrumental transcription flourished and composers often themselves virtuosoperformers found in the most popular arias ready material for their own sets of variations. Here is an outstanding example:Donato Lovreglio (1841-1907)played the flute and composed many pieces for his own instrument mainlyoperatic fantasias as well as a few for the clarinet. In Fantasia On The Opera 'La Traviata' he demonstrates his remarkable ability to write variations which whilst providing a dazzling display of notes neverthelessremain faithful to the character of the Verdi arias which inspired them.

Hungarian Fantasia S123-Performed by Neill Eisenstein piano Accompaniment: Stuttgart Symphony Orchestra Conductor: Emil Kahn Liszt transformed the whole concept of the concerto when he cast his A-major concerto in one single movement using the idea of thematic transformation. A poetical masterpiece both serene and glitteringly exciting which stands at the very pinnacle of Romantic piano literature. Liszt used his own Hungarian Rhapsody No. 14 as the basis for the Hungarian Fantasia the second piece featured on this MMO release. With its triumphal themes sparkling cadenzas and breathtaking finale this single-movement mini-concerto is a sparkling musical gem! A wonderful eminently accessiblepiece due to its relatively short length. Includes a high-quality printed music score and a compact disc containing a complete version with soloist in split-channel stereo (soloist on the right channel); then a second version in full stereo of the orchestral accompaniment minus the soloist.

J. S. Bach (1685-1750) was a German Baroque composer who is revered for the originality and skill of his contrapuntal and harmonic techniques. He spent most of his life working as an organist and choirmaster but was also employed as a composer a many different Royal Courts. However his skill as an organist and composer for Organ is what gained him the reputation he enjoyed during his lifetime.This is perhaps epitomised by his Fantasia and Fugue in G Minor (BWV 542) often referred to as the Great Fantasia and Fugue. It has been edited by Sir Frederick Bridge and James Higgs.
